Description
Occupying a prime position on Coniscliffe Road, one of Darlington’s most prestigious addresses, this distinguished detached residence enjoys a remarkable plot of almost half an acre. Its sweeping, south-facing gardens open out onto panoramic farmland views that are both rare and breathtaking, offering the peace of a rural setting without sacrificing the convenience of town living.
Built in 1929, the house extends to nearly 1,800 sq ft and has been thoughtfully designed to balance character with practicality. The entrance hall creates an immediate sense of welcome, leading to a choice of reception rooms, each bright and beautifully proportioned. The sitting room, complete with open fire and parquet flooring, looks directly onto the gardens and beyond to the countryside, while the dining room and lounge provide versatile and elegant spaces for entertaining, relaxation or family life.
The kitchen is appointed with granite work surfaces and integrated appliances, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern convenience. A utility room and ground-floor shower room add further functionality, ensuring the home supports the needs of a busy household. Upstairs, four comfortable bedrooms – including a principal with en suite – are complemented by a well-fitted family bathroom.
The gardens are the true centrepiece of this property. To the front, a block-paved driveway and double garage provide excellent parking and storage. To the rear, the grounds unfold over split levels, with extensive lawns, mature planting and multiple terraces for outdoor dining or simply enjoying the uninterrupted countryside views. South-facing and wonderfully private, the setting is as uplifting as it is practical – a backdrop that evolves with the seasons.
The location underlines the appeal. Within easy reach are some of Darlington’s most respected schools, including Hummersknott Academy and Carmel College, making this an ideal family home. Nearby Cockerton and Mowden offer everyday shopping, cafés and services, while the town centre provides a full range of retail, leisure and cultural facilities. Excellent transport links place the A1(M) within a short drive, and Darlington’s mainline station connects you to Newcastle, York, Leeds and London.
For those seeking a home that combines space, style and convenience with an enviable setting, this property is a rare opportunity. It offers the best of both worlds – an established family home with expansive private gardens and captivating views, all within one of the town’s most desirable locations.
